January Transfer Window 25/26

Don’t want Jobe plays every minute Bellingham back.

 

Worth remembering that our very successful head of recruitment has since left. I may have missed it,but I haven't seen a replacement?

 

He’s not good enough to play at this level yet for a team who will be battling every game with limited time on the ball imo. Alright going to someone like Chelsea who can rotate him in with arguably world class midfielders like Caicedo and Enzo, there’s no pressure on him then. He’s gone to a worse league than the PL and he’s struggling massively.

 

Correct ^

Jobe returning talk needs to stop.

 

I disagree, but fair enough. The problem with Jobe is that he’s misprofiled - perhaps by Dortmund and even his family. You could put him at the base of almost any midfield and he’d underpin it nicely. I’d love him back, although I recognise that it wouldn’t work for us right now.

 

Who was it and when did hje leave? Have we got a replacement?

 

Stuart Harvey a couple of weeks ago

 

I have a feeling that our new DOF will head up the recruitment department.

 

Thanks, remember now!

 

his move is a big part as to why our summer was so good

jobe like many, such as neil, were great in the champ.

but they cant compete with sadiki right now and if theres pressure for starts we cant be having that.

jobe has potential and hes more likely to get game time in germany, weaker league and playing for a top side. theyll cruisee 70% of games and a chance for him to push on.

 

its next summer if we stay up that excites me, we might take another massive stride forward and sign folk that relegate current starters to the bench or even sales, it's wild to think about.

For example, if sadiki keeps this form hes 60m minimum for me.

 

We keep this up, think a few players will be tempted to ask their agents about a move.

 

Since 1st October our squad value has rocketed 17.2% - the most in the league.

I think competition for sadiki and diarra could come from Arthur Avom from Lorient. He’s recently made his Cameroon debut too. Looks tailor made for our team.

I think they’ll be looking for a promising left footed right winger to join too.

Maybe Lucumi too

 

I'm still surprised more didn't leave in the Summer. Maybe promotion driven salary increases made it trickier

 

Wasnt the option on geertrudia about £17 million? Another potential bargain

Insane how good our recruitment is

 

What sort of market we shopping in during January? Top up the squad to consolidate or do we kick on? Elite recruitment in the summer, hopefully it continues in Jan.

 

Can we afford to spend any more in Jan?

 

We have to be close to the financial limit imo. Maybe we can sneak Dembele in from Barca but after that I think we are done.

 

Agree about that being his best position. I think he could excel there actually.
